Explore the vibrant heritage of this historical trade route at INDEX’s design fair this month
After the summer slump, the events season kicks off with the return of one of the region’s celebrated design exhibitions, INDEX, whose theme – The Silk Road – will take visitors on a tantalising journey across Europe and Asia, discovering cross-continental designs, high-quality products and artistic influences.
Held at Dubai World Trade Centre from September 16 to 18, the show will celebrate the colours, patterns and textures that were prevalent on the historical trade route, with exhibitors exploring how they’ve evolved and influence 21st-century design and retail.
